  Reliable but not so fun to drive - 2005 Toyota Camry
  By Topaz - December 30 - 2:10 pm

  Its a very reliable car. Low maintenance. However, when I need a sudden burst to accelerate on the freeway, it almost redlines going from 55mph to 65mph.

  Excellent Commuter Car - 2005 Toyota Camry
  By keegm480 - November 29 - 11:27 pm

  I have owned my fair share of cars, and this is definitely my favorite to drive to work in every day. No, its not exciting to drive, but it is very comfortable and has plenty of power for the average person. I have had zero issues with this car, just routine maintenance. Has a very good stock audio system in the car, I cant see myself selling this any time soon! I drive a lot of long trips, this car just eats away the miles!

  Good Price and Good Car - 2005 Toyota Camry
  By by McGeorge - November 28 - 9:33 pm

  I got the base standard 5 speed. I like my car. I have been very happy with this car so far and I enjoy driving it. I drive many different cars (rentals) and Im glad I picked this one. No buyer regrets.

  Nice car for the money - 2005 Toyota Camry
  By loski09 - November 22 - 6:50 pm

  We now have 2500 mi. on the vehicle. Considering it has 4 cyl., performance is more than adequate. It is comfortable to ride in. Ours has leather, heated seats, power both sides, side curtain air bags and vehicle stbility control. Radio is good but mode control on steering wheel is easy to hit when driving (relocating on wheel would help). Fuel economy is not as good as it should be, hope it gets better with more miles on engine. Info Center (Avg. Mpg.) is "goofy", shows 7+ mpg. more than actual mpg. Not "fun" to drive, but handling, in-out design very good,quality and reliability is a "given" for Toyota. Tried Accord, Maxima and Altima. Camry XLE is the choice for me.

  Transmission is awful - 2005 Toyota Camry
  By DCguy - November 17 - 1:06 pm

  The transmission is really really bad. It has been changed twice and repaired twice on my car. 1-2, 2-3 shifting is awful and vibrates. Then comes the high rear end obstructing visibility for parking. The front bumper catches parking wedges, which cause it to tear the thin plastic undercarrage.

  2005 Camry SE V6 - 2005 Toyota Camry
  By Denman - November 4 - 1:13 am

  Ive had the car 5 weeks now with about 1300 miles on it and I love it. The 3.3 V6 is an awsome motor, gobs of power and very quiet, smooth and refined, typical Toyota quality. Hardly any road noise, so well insulated, and very smooth ride. A solid well built car.

  I Love My 05 Cam - 2005 Toyota Camry
  By Philly2k - October 6 - 12:10 am

  I recently traded my 97 Infiniti J30 for an 05 Camry. I was honestly expecting there to be a dramatic transition, but the Camry is great. The Camry LE had most of the features my Infiniti had (less of course leather, moonroof seatheaters V6). However the benifits of the Camry far outweigh them. The manual transmission was enough to pacify my desire for raw power. Not to mention the Camry rides better and quieter than my Infiniti did. Dont get me wrong the J30 was 7 years old with 140,000 miles, but it had a good ride too. When my lease is up Im definitely getting a maxxed out Camry SE next time.

  Best car yet - 2005 Toyota Camry
  By BeachSixPack - September 17 - 3:53 am

  After owning many many cars, this one by far is the best I have owned. Drove it to Florida after buying it and was very pleased with its comfort, reliability, looks, and gas mileage in the 30s while traveling above 80 for extended periods of time. Great car.

  Best car money can buy - 2005 Toyota Camry
  By camrylover - August 31 - 2:43 pm

  This car is just an all round beauty. It is SOOOOOO quiet and luxurious and honestly way better then the accord we test drove. Interior is user friendly and simple but nothing to complain about.
